"Current Electric Contracting LLC was efficient and professional in their overall response to our issue. We had to have a few breakers replaced in our panel. Their pricing was fair. We will definitely keep them in our contractor database and hire them again."

"Carlos is a person of big heart and really knows the electrical work. He quickly diagnosed and fixed electrical issue in my home that was done improperly by the builder. Fixed the lights, panel everything. Super knowledgeable and best customer service guy. He also fixed the permanent lights on the roof outside. Highly recommend him for any electrical problems in home/business."

"I had made several calls to the original electrician that worked on my building in the past and after weeks of empty promises I decided to try HomeAdvisor and was connected with Current Electric. Literally within minutes of requesting information my phone rang in the store and it was the electrician. He said he would be out the next morning and showed up first thing as promised, provided a very fair quote and performed the service the day after I signed the quote. It was exactly the way it should be - I will use for all stores going forward."

"We had series of electrical jobs for our home, such as socket repairs, chandelier, and floodlight installation and I would say Daniel from Morano Electric did an efficient and great job. Jesse is our point of contact and accommodated our needs as per scope of works. We highly recommend Morano Electric!"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Flickering lights, warm outlets, or tripped circuits needing immediate attention mean systems likely risk hazard scare.

It prevents electrical surges, protects your home from things like electrical fires, and prevents you from getting shocked if an errant surge runs through your power line. Without grounded wires, your appliances could also get damaged during lightning storms.

You can add an electrical outlet outside by sending a wire through the wall from an existing interior outlet. Without having to open up walls, you can thread a new electrical cable from the existing outlet through the wall and to the exterior. You’ll need to cut a hole in the siding to place your new outlet. Ensure that your outdoor outlet is a GFCI outlet (ground fault circuit interrupter outlet) per the National Electrical Code. It’s best to hire an electrician to add an outdoor outlet unless you have previous electrical experience.

If you have a garage heater that is 1,500 watts or more, it will need its own breaker. As a good rule of thumb, no appliance should exceed 1,500 watts per outlet for best outcomes. Consult a local garage heating service to determine the power needs for your outdoor or indoor space.

Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
